Boo to you

Paige as a werewolf, she made the shirt with hair herself and was proud

yes this is the same costume from 2 years ago and yes it still fits.  She decided last minute she did not like the pumpkin

Delaney as a princess (SHOCKER!!)

Today was a good day.  We went to visit Uncle Chris in the hospital for a quick visit and to show him our Halloween costumes, we are praying for him and hope he will get better soon!
Next it was on to Grandmas and Papas , we saw Aunt Katie and Uncle Ryan and went to a few houses.
Abby wanted to stay home with Grandma, I thought she was still not feeling well, she was sick yesterday.  Grandma said she had a blast handing out candy with her to all the trick or treaters and did not want to leave.  We came home and went around our neighborhood.  Lots of fun and lots of candy !!

The Ghosts of Halloweens past

A and Ds first Halloween they won 2nd place in the journal star photo contest and we got a free museum and zoo pass for a year! Looking back at this they look scared :)

Why I think that my neighbors think I am crazy

So no pictures for this post.  Read on and see why :)  Yesterday the girls painted pumpkins again for the third time.  They used washable paint but decided to paint each other as well.  So they needed to take a bath before we went to pick Paige up from school.  They took a bath and I wrapped them up in their towels, sat them on the couch and went into their room to pick out new clothes for them.  I then walked back out into the living room and they were gone!!  I looked at the back sliding door and it was OPEN!  Sure enough I had two naked little girls out swinging on the swing set.  I ran out and started yelling "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?"  "YOU CAN NOT BE OUTSIDE NAKED!!"  They both looked at me confused and then I looked to the left and my neighbor two doors down was out and trying to figure out what was going on at my house.  He was squinting his eyes ( and I assume wondering what the heck  those kids are doing outside swinging naked).  The girls then decided to run around the back yard and make me catch them.

Later on this same night the neighbors wife was outside reading when Abby climbed the fence and started running around the neighbors yard that is between us.  Paige had to climb over and catch her while I was once again yelling.  "What are you doing?"


I told Rob when he got home late last night and I was exhaused that I am pretty sure we were the topic of conversation at the neighbors house that night

Craft Day

Today we went over to Grandma and Grandpa's house  and made our Halloween treat buckets.  Abby made a Mummy one and when D heard that she said can I make a daddy one :)

 Delaney made a princess one with a tutu around it, with a little help

Paige made a zombie.  She used random things she could find and she is so funny.  It was a good day. 

Picture catch up

First haircuts ( before preschool)

at the fire station open house what a fun time!

window crayons

yesterday since the girls were big helpers at the grocery story they got a treat.  Window crayons! I think they liked them!  They practiced writing their names and drew pictures of our family.  It is so cute that they can actually make stick people now.  The picture is hard to see, it is from my phone and the window is a little full of art :)

A picture is worth 1000 words

Super Star

We just had Paige's parent teacher conference the other night.  She is doing awesome as always, she is super smart.  I am one proud mommy!! Here is video of her playing the trombone.  Enjoy!  She has to practice 150 minutes a week and makes sure she gets every minute in :)

Go Big RED!!!

We took a tour of Memorial Stadium, with my moms group.  It was so much fun!  We watched a football movie and Abby kept saying "daddy like football".  Abby also decided she would like to play football someday.  We went to see daddy at Amigos afterwards so they could tell him all about it!  It was a fun day!

Fall Fun

pretty sweet :)

jumping at the pumpkin patch with Aunt Katie

Delaney was upset that the pumpkins only came in orange so she painted her pumpkin her favorite color PURPLE!!
